I also have a couple of new releases in both my stores today. With Valentine's Day quickly approaching, I have made some Heart Borders and Heart Frames to dress up your pages. These will also be great for wedding layouts.Pickleberrypop and A Cherry on Top

To all the Aussies that come to my blog, I hope you have a great Australia Day tomorrow. It's now a whole year since I officially became an Aussie...boy that year has gone quick!Last Friday we drove to Goolwa to watch the Tour Down Under finish and got stuck in the worst traffic! Luckily we made it there before the bike riders did.Below is a photo of my boys enjoying one last break before school resumes for the year.Getting ready for the new school year is always extremely busy...buying uniforms, books and shoes.

Valentine's Day is upon us soon, and my new kit My Little Cupcake would be perfect to scrap your loved ones! It's a little different to the usual red Valentine's kits and would also be great for any girly page or cooking layouts.

How quickly does the week go....it's Friday evening and another weekend is upon us. I only wish that Justin and Matthew had soccer practice at the same location this evening!

I took Justin tonight as he had training at the beach....and it was perfect weather for a nice walk! Below are a couple of photos I took while walking. You wouldn't believe how many seagulls there were....here's just a few of them!

While I was at the beach, Andrew was having his first driving lesson. It's amazing that we have a child who is old enough to drive!

*****************************

If anyone is looking to stock up on quickpages, all mine are 50% off at Pickleberrypop and A Cherry on Top until Sunday January 17th! You won't ever find them at a cheaper price!!

After a few days of unbearable heat, we now have at least a week of much nicer Summer weather. This is good because soccer training begins for Justin and Matthew. However, if a hot day is forecast , their training is moved to the beach. It's going to be a very long soccer season....games don't even start until the end of March, and run until September!

Tonight I enjoyed a quiet girls night in....just me and the dog! Although she just slept the night away! The boys all went out to watch a 20/20 cricket game in town.

I have a new stamp frame to share today. I will do one each month, so if you are on the ball, you will get all 12 over the year!Sorry link expired

Talk about extremes!I have a new winter/snow kit in both my stores....and we are going through a heat wave here down under!Today it reached over 40C (104F), tomorrow the forecast is 41C (105.8F)....and then for Sunday and Monday we can expect 43C (109.4F) each day!!!!!! Not much one can do other than stay inside on the computer, or relax in the pool! I think there will be lots of ice cold smoothies drunk to try and keep cool.So this new kit is for those of you who are in the depths of winter and are having "fun" in the snow! Or for those in the Southern Hemisphere and have photos to scrap of a vacation to the snow.

Unfortunately every holiday must come to an end! After having a few relaxing days away, reality sets in when you come home and face a mountain of washing! Pulling down the Christmas tree is also a huge job.

A couple of years ago I posted this photo here on my blog....

....well here is the same house! It's hard to tell, but I don't think it is finished yet!

After downloading the last of our holiday photos, I also found this cute one of our pooch enjoying the beach.

While away I couldn't resist doing a little designing, and here's a little sneak peek at what I have been working on.

Last year I started Project 365 and lasted all the way through to August. For those of you that finished the year..... congratulations!

For anyone doing P365 this year, here's a new template to get you going.Sorry link expired.
